As Managing Director of Zentropa Entertainments Berlin, she was the German co-producer of feature films such as<em> Love Is all You Need<\/em> by Susanne Bier and<em> A Royal Affair<\/em> by Nikolaj Arcel.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Denmark, notably, is also the first country in the world to switch to one-hundred percent sustainable agricultural cultivation. In order to make the change to ecological cultivation methods, the government has launched a \u20ac 50 million funding program that is granting incentives to green investments in the development of new technologies in the agricultural and food processing industries. In the film industry, sustainability has also become an issue. \u201eGoing green is the next step we\u2019re taking\u201c, says Thomas Gammeltoft, Managing Director of the<a href=\"http:\/\/cphfilmfund.com\/en\/\"> Copenhagen Film Fund<\/a>, who will collaborate closely on that with Film Greater Copenhagen, the new Film Commission in Denmark. \u201eHamburg is more than a showcase \u2014 its inspiring for us to see how we can work it out.\u201c<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<br \/>\nIntroduced in 2012, the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.ffhsh.de\/en\/film_commission\/gruener_drehpass.php\">Green Shooting Card<\/a>, issued by the Hamburg Film Commission to productions that follow its Best Practices guidelines, has since been awarded to more than sixty productions: theatrical feature films; TV movies and series; student films; animated and short films from throughout Germany. Besides feature films such as: <a href=\"http:\/\/greenfilmshooting.net\/blog\/en\/2014\/02\/04\/the-formula-for-green-success\/\"><em>Buddy<\/em> <\/a>and <em>Kleine Ziege, Sturer Bock<\/em>; TV series like <em><a href=\"http:\/\/greenfilmshooting.net\/blog\/en\/2015\/02\/01\/serial-sustainability\/\">Notruf Hafenkante<\/a><\/em>; the cult TV crime installment of <a href=\"http:\/\/greenfilmshooting.net\/blog\/en\/2016\/02\/13\/searching-for-traces-of-green\/\"><em>Tatort;<\/em><\/a> and the TV show <em><a href=\"http:\/\/greenfilmshooting.net\/blog\/en\/2016\/02\/19\/the-green-quiz-champion\/\">Der Quiz-Champion<\/a><\/em> \u2014 they all went green.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>The secret of the Hamburg Film Commission\u2019s success is the fruitful, cooperative relationship with the<a href=\"http:\/\/greenfilmshooting.net\/blog\/en\/2014\/02\/05\/green-consciousness-on-the-set\/\"> Hamburg Media School<\/a> (HMS), which has sown the seeds for a green harvest. \u201eIt can\u2019t be green enough! The key is organizing various efforts, as well as sponsorships\u201c, remarks Richard Reitinger, Head of HMS. \u201eIf participation is optional, then the teams like it, and I\u2019ve even seen hardboiled gaffers munching on locally grown carrots and dip. I didn\u2019t hear them complaining about it!\u201d Moreover, as part of this initiative, the Hamburg Film Commission is organizing crash courses to cross-pollinate students of environmental science with film production. Thanks to the increasing transfer of green know-how, the number of sustainable productions just keeps growing. \u201eWe are offering specific workshops for producers, production managers, camera crews, production designers, and catering teams\u201c, says Christiane Dopp. \u201eTo provide them with the tools and tricks of the trade of green production.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><em>Photos: \u00a9 C.
